Quantum Squeezed Light Propagation in an Optical Parity-Time (PT)-Symmetric Structure
We investigate the medium effect of a parity-time (PT)-symmetric bilayer on the quantum optical properties of an incident squeezed light at zero temperature (T=0 K). To do so, we use the canonical quantization approach and describe the amplification and dissipation properties of the constituent layers of the bilayer structure by Lorentz model to analyze the quadrature squeezing of the outgoing ...
متن کاملLight Transport in Random Media with PT -symmetry
The scattering properties of randomly layered optical media with PT -symmetric index of refraction are studied using the transfer-matrix method. We find that the transmission coefficient decays exponentially as a function of the system size, with an enhanced rate ξγ(W ) −1 = ξ0(W ) +ξγ(0) −1, where ξ0(W ) is the localization length of the equivalent passive random medium and ξγ(0) is the attenu...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Stability for Temporal Bright Solitons in a PT-Symmetric NLDC
PT-Symmetry is one of the interesting topics in quantum mechanics and optics. One of the demonstration of PT-Symmetric effects in optics is appeared in the nonlinear directional coupler (NLDC). In the paper we numerically investigate the stability of temporal bright solitons propagate in a PT-Symmetric NLDC by considering gain in bar and loss in cross. By using the analytical solutions of pertu...
متن کاملParity–time symmetry and variable optical isolation in active–passive-coupled microresonators
Compound-photonic structures with gain and loss1 provide a powerful platform for testing various theoretical proposals on non-Hermitian parity–time-symmetric quantum mechanics2–5 and initiate new possibilities for shaping optical beams and pulses beyond conservative structures. Such structures can be designed as optical analogues of complex parity–timesymmetric potentials with real spectra. How...
متن کاملSymmetry breaking of solitons in one-dimensional parity-time-symmetric optical potentials.
Symmetry breaking of solitons in a class of one-dimensional parity-time (PT) symmetric complex potentials with cubic nonlinearity is reported. In generic PT-symmetric potentials, such symmetry breaking is forbidden. However, in a special class of PT-symmetric potentials V(x)=g(2)(x)+αg(x)+ig'(x), where g(x) is a real and even function and α a real constant, symmetry breaking of solitons can occ...
